Magnolia Adult Care Inc sits on Northwest Fieldstone Drive in Beaverton, Oregon, and while it does have ties to the names Bethany Adult Care and Senior Magnolia Care Inc, people seem to talk about it under either of those names, but the main idea's always the same-it's a senior living place that's been around since about 2011, doing things quietly and with about one to four employees running the place. They handle different levels of care, so some folks there live pretty independently, coming and going as they want, but others get a lot more help, especially with memory problems like Alzheimer's or other kinds of dementia, and there's everything from basic home healthcare to what you'd call high acuity care if someone's a bit sicker or coming from a hospital stay. The building itself offers board and care home services, which means people live in private rooms with their own bathrooms, and these bathrooms come with wheelchair accessible showers, and for those who care, they serve both vegetarian and kosher meal options. The cost for a private room runs about $3,000 a month, which covers most living arrangements.
The community has both indoor and outdoor common spaces, and you'll see residents sitting together out in the yard or joining activities inside, and folks who need a ride to appointments or errands can get transportation for an extra fee, which is handy if getting out is a bit hard. There's an on-site beautician for residents' grooming needs. Magnolia sets up specific care packages, so you get adult day care, in-home support, or full assisted living, depending on what's going on, and that includes medication help, personal care, diabetic care, incontinence services, and help for non-ambulatory folks who can't move around well. They also do skilled nursing, including wound care and round-the-clock medical attention if that's needed, and those who need respite or just a short-term stay can get that as well. Dementia care gets special attention, with secure environments, special programs, memory activities, and 24-hour support, and this also spills into their day care services that help families get a break. So, it's a smaller, straightforward place where you can have a little more independence or get full help, depending on how things change, and it's been quietly operating under different names for over a decade now.
